Track trencher attachment
Designed for use in wind energy applications, the CL80 cable layer attachment sorts, configures, and feeds three cables, one ground wire, one conduit with fiber-optic cable, and one tracer tape in a specified configuration into the trench — all in one pass. A series of rollers then guides the cables over the machine and feeds them into a cable box, where they are sorted in the appropriate configuration.
